I bought mine directly from http://www.motiveproducts.com  It's certainly 
easy to use if you follow the instructions, except that it needs a swivel 
between the hose and the reservoir cap.  You can get that part at Home 
Depot.  All in all, much better than the rhythm method with the brake pedal 
and bleeder wrench.  (BTW, it attaches to the reservoir, not the master 
cylinder.)
